Streamlining Autodesk Deployments: How CQi Simplifies the Installation Process
For many organisations, Autodesk software is mission-critical — used daily across design, engineering, and construction teams.
There are two ways to create a 2D PDF drawing using the Bluebeam Revu Revit plug-in:
Note: The Bluebeam Plug-in does not support Phasing Graphic Overrides in the native model or linked models. If your material colours are not appearing as shown in Revit, you can edit or turn off the Phasing Graphic Overrides in Revit by going to Manage Tab > Phasing > Graphic Overrides.
The Bluebeam plug-in can also create 3D PDFs. To do so, select Create 3D PDF from the 3D menu in the Bluebeam ribbon. Note that you can also create a U3D file from this menu if desired. U3D files can be imported into Revu and other applications.
To configure the settings used to create 3D PDFs, select 3D PDF Settings from the 3D menu.
To edit the 3D Settings used to create 3D PDFs, select 3D PDF Settings from the 3D menu.

Page Size: Select one of the predefine page sizes, or select <custom> to define custom width and height.
Width and Height: Only available when <custom> is selected as the Page Size.

Use Section Box: Enable to export only what is contained within the sectioned box.
Export Properties: Enable to export object and material metadata.
Export Poly Lines: Enable to export poly lines used to represent elevation.
